Opinion of Counsel The Indenture Trustee shall receive at least seven days prior written notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action pursuant to Section 8.04(b), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Indenture Trustee shall also require, as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not materially and adversely impair the security for the Notes or the rights of the Noteholders in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Trust Estate. Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action.
Selection of Counsel In the event the Company shall be obligated under Section 3(a) hereof to pay the expenses of any proceeding against Indemnitee, the Company, if appropriate, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such proceeding, with counsel approved by Indemnitee, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same proceeding, provided that (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any such proceeding at Indemnitee’s expense; and (ii) if (A) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, (B) Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense or (C) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such proceeding, then the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.
Retention of Counsel In any dispute or proceeding arising under or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 2.3 and 11.1 hereof, Sellers shall have the right, at their election, to retain the firm of Drinker Xxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP and Xxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxxxx LLP to represent them in such matter and Buyer, for itself and the Eldorado Entities and for its and the Eldorado Entities' successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably waives and consents to any such representation in any such matter and the communication by such counsel to Sellers in connection with any such representation of any fact known to such counsel arising by reason of such counsel's prior representation of Sellers or the Eldorado Entities. Buyer, for itself and the Eldorado Entities, and its and the Eldorado Entities' successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all communications between Sellers and their counsel, including, without limitation, Drinker Xxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP and Xxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxxxx LLP, made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and closing under, or any dispute or proceeding arising under or in connection with this Agreement which, immediately prior to the Closing, would be deemed to be privileged communications of the Sellers and their counsel and would not be subject to disclosure to the Buyer in connection with any process relating to a dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise, shall continue after the Closing to be communications between Sellers and such counsel and neither Buyer nor any Person purporting to act on behalf of or through Buyer, shall seek to obtain the same by any process on the grounds that the privilege attaching to such communications belongs to the Eldorado Entities and not the Sellers. Other than as explicitly set forth in this Section 13.14, the parties acknowledge that any attorney-client privilege attaching as a result of legal counsel representing the Eldorado Entities prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing and continue to be a privilege of the Eldorado Entities, and not the Sellers, after the Closing.

When issued, the Representative's Purchase Option, the Representative's Warrants and the Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company to issue and sell, upon exercise thereof and payment therefor, the number and type of securities of the Company called for thereby and such Warrants, the Representative's Purchase Option, and the Representative's Warrants, when issued, in each case, are enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except (a) as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (b) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the federal and state securities laws, and (c) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

(v) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, the Representative's Purchase Option, the Escrow Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Services Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Securities, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and compliance by the Company with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, do not and will not, with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, (a) to such counsel's knowledge, conflict with, or result in a breach of, any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or modification of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of, any mortgage, deed of trust, note, indenture, loan, contract, commitment or other agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, (b) result in any violation of the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws of the Company, or (c) to such counsel's knowledge, violate any statute or any judgment, order or decree, rule or regulation applicable to the Company of any court, domestic or foreign, or of any federal, state or other regulatory authority or other governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company, its properties or assets.

The Securities and each agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. No statute or regulation required to be described in the Prospectus is not described as required, nor are any contracts or documents of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement not so described or filed as required.
(vii) Counsel has participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public accountants for the Company and representatives of the Underwriters at which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and related matters were discussed and although such counsel is not passing upon and does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement and Prospectus (except as otherwise set forth in this opinion), no facts have come to the attention of such counsel which should lead them to believe that either the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the date of such opinion contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (it being understood that such counsel need express no opinion with respect to the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical data included in the Registration Statement or Prospectus).

To such counsel's knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or threatened under the Act or applicable state securities laws.
